long title: Major Indigenous March Launches Month of Intensive Social
Mobilization in Colombia

abstract:

<p>"On Monday September 13 the Nasa indigenous peoples of Colombia
launched a big three-day march and mobilization against war,
neoliberalism, the FTAA, constitutional counterreforms planned by the
government, and continuing assaults on their communities by government,
paramilitaries, and guerrillas. The march marks the beginning of a whole
month of intensive social mobilization in Colombia.</p> 

<p>The Nasa are known as dreamers, and they have become the ethical guides of
 Colombia's social movements. They can trace their resistance back
 to 
rebellion against the Spanish 
colonizers hundreds of years ago through to a strengthening of their movement in the past few decades. </p>

<p>With the help of IMC Radio Network, and in coordination with the National Indigenous Organization of Colombia (ONIC), the march will be
 streamed and broadcast around the world. The radio transmission will start from the "radiocicleta" -- an adapted bicycle equipped with a 
radio transmitter and antenna that will accompany the big march -- and from various indigenous community radio stations in Colombia. It is 
likely no coincidence that on Friday Septemer 4, the indigenous community station Radio Nasa was shut down by the government of Colombian 
president Alvaro Uribe."</p>
